I think it's disgusting that a mayor would actually throw a drink in someone's face just for a catty remark regarding the woman's ex husband. It's his fault anyway, and neither should be seeking this type of revenge on one another. Besides, with a little update, Mrs. Benoit would rings around Dawson. Instead of wasting her time on this ex and his girlfriend she should be looking after herself and get on with life before it's too late.

I agree the nasty comments should stop. But I think that "DidYOUFailEconomics should not try to correct grammar when he/she also made an error. No one is not NOONE. There is a space between the two words. I read something else once, and the person typed the word "alot" about 3 times while trying to correct someone else's grammar. lol. It''s "A lot not alot. So if I can read something, I don't worry about grammar on these forums, unless I'm doing it in fun. I make mistakes too. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. ;)

Did you read? Those that died had other medical issues also. Even the basic flu can kill you if left uncared for or you have other medical issues. Now if we had national healthcare, no one would be afraid to go to the doctor and get checked out for fear of medical costs.

Some of these comments are funny. Men cheat for one of two reasons, they have an unhappy home life and can't for some reason get out of it, and two for the simplest reason in the book, SEX. It has nothing to do with Younger and hotter. Hotter to them maybe, due to the fact his marriage has become unexciting in that area, or the love has died to some degree. If he is attracted sexually and the OTHER woman is reciprocating, it will happen. Sometimes the spouse is far more attractive and it still happens. It's the animal in us and some have no control. I've seen men turn to look at me or others, and most are with attractive women already. It's just animal instinct, that part is normal, but to take it further something else is going on here. And don't forget, once the other woman becomes the wife, after a few years, it will happen to her too. This stigma that the wife is unattractive and an uninteresting nag is nothing more than a rotten excuse for some. Nobody can be taken if they don't want to be, so to blame the other woman is ridiculous. To say it is her fault is ridiculous. The fault lies in the marriage itself, the wife, the husband or both. True love in the end takes precedence. Some find out too late that what's right in front of them is a lot greener than the other side. But then again, the other side may be greener for some and they choose to stay. We have one life to live and we search for happiness, we make mistakes, we make wrong choices at times, but we all want the same thing, and that's to be happy and righteous at the same time and hopefully not hurt those we love in the process. It's a gamble, win or lose.

Hey, I'm 57 and I don't look like that, lol. How can you say what anyone should look like at any age. It's the person, not the age, she just looks bad for any age, you can tell she's lived a hard life one way or another. I don't think someone's look is relevent to being a good mother or not. I believe she needs help, and I hope she gets it and becomes a better person because of it.
I don't agree with what she did, but at least she stuck around to make sure it was safe, so I read. She obviously knows she can't give the child the life it deserves. But of course a hospital would have been a safer decision.

First of all, how can you compare her age to any other age, let alone 57. It isn't about her age. So you are saying 57 year olds look tired and worn out, well not all of us. Also, that's just a picture and maybe she does look worn out, she just gave birth alone, but she has problems and maybe she should have gone about it differently if she didn't want to keep the baby, but she obviously knew she couldn't take care of it, and hopefully her story stands as far as waiting to make sure the baby was safe before leaving the motel.
I hope she gets the help she needs and becomes a better person. Her looks shouldn't have anything to do with this.

Out of the two, I would say, yes, the right man won. Chris is like the one that got away when you weren't looking, only to sweep up behind you and take it all. His performances the night before were his best ever and deserving of the title. Why did Chris win? Somewhere along the way Adam grew a little stale, we wanted more and didn't get it, because his best was the same every week, he was at the top of his game from day one, but failed to keep us enthralled as we knew what to expect from him and yes he gave it all, the screaming, the makeup, the nail polish, the glitter, but he failed to give us a little humility, even to the point that he actually answered Ryan's question in a past week, by stating that Danny and Allison were the best that week. He was sent to the bottom instead. He lost me at that point. Ironically, the bottom included Chris. Judging a fellow idols performance is a not so cool thing to do. I'm sure he doesn't care and will have tremendous opportunities, but Chris goes beyond talent, and he is a deserving talent, but he is also a nice guy!!

Well I find it interesting to see the differences of opinion regarding the contestants. I personally loved Allison, she was amazing, especially for her young age. I don't know how anyone can say she wasn't brilliant. She is marketable too, as was Danny and Kris too. Adam, I believe will win, he may be a hard one to figure out as far as where he fits in the music business, but I believe that wherever he decides to take it he will succeed. He is just a very talented, confident young man. He has proven his versatility in every week's genre. They are all winners at this point anyway, no matter which way it goes, I think the top four have a brilliant future ahead.

I had a feeling Allison would end up going home, I was crossing my fingers that she would not and that it would be Chris. I like her, I think she is amazing at her age. I do think that the news on her winning another competition for a record contract and fifty thousand dollars may have added to that. There is no way that Chris should still be there. He's talented yes, but he can't sing as well as the others.
I am so glad that someone else mentioned Chris Daughtry as boring. He's very predictable, all his songs sound the same and just always surprised me that there was such a big uproar when he went home early in his idol days. Maybe because I'm not a big rock fan, but I do like some of it and he, to me is very boring.

I'd like to think Adam is a shoe in. But surprises have happened on Idol before, so I won't put any bets on it. I think Adam and Allison have been deserving throughout the whole season, not a note off key, and always entertaining. As for Danny, he too has done very well song wise, maybe not quite as entertaining as A and A, up until last night I thought he may end up in the finale, because he's a great singer and I believe Allison is not a favorite of the judges, specifically Simon. However I see a glimpse of hope that Simon is finally coming around to admitting Allison is amazing. With that said, Chris should be going home tonight.

Great blog once again. For me it's been Allison and Adam all along with Danny and Chris not far behind. Let's face it at this point they are all extremely talented and have won (in their own right) a place in the music business. It does puzzle me as to why Allison lands in the bottom three so often and what makes her not so popular as the others. She has got to be one of the most talented seventeen year olds I've seen. Simon seems to think it's her confidence level, but in all her performances I haven't seen that.
Chris has grown on me, he gets better all the time.
I think Matt will go home tonight. I will P'd if Allison goes home.

I think the right bottom three where there. However, Lil should have gone home. She may have a great voice but lacks stage presence and honestly, I think she has been off key for the most part each week. I don't agree with you on Danny, I believe he has stage presence without really having to try, he just sings and the stage presence shines through. He's amazing, as is Allison and Adam, respectfully. Can't say enough about Adam, he's just.. well.. great all around. As for Chris, well I'm just waiting for that big moment where he really gives the rest a reason to fear him. As for Anoop, he is getting better each week, but, is it me, or does he lack a personality? He seems to be holding back a very mean side that wants to scream at the judges. Just my feeling.
I enjoyed seeing Jennifer Hudson back on the Idol stage.
As for Britain's Susan Boyle, it is nice to see that at any age you can have a chance to show your magnificent voice. Britain's Got Talent is the English Original version of America's Got Talent. I believe the X Factor in England,is the original version of Idol, of which there is a similar age rule as American Idol. Simon Cowell is a judge on that show too.

Why do some of us women, always blame the other woman. Okay, it takes two, and if you tempt most men enough, in some cases, that's all it takes. But... he's the one married, not her. He should also pay the consequences of his actions not the so called home wrecker. The home has to have been wrecked already for him to have done this, either that or like I said he's easily swayed. I understand the hurt, and I don't think Ms Dawson is telling the whole truth about the affair, but that said, Mrs Benoit should pull herself together after the hurt subsides and get on with life and be the better person. Honestly, not that it's that important, but he's no prize, and neither is Ms Dawson.
